I just upgraded my FC6 + Myth (0.21 from bleeding) to F7 + bleeding. Actually I did a fresh F7 install on a new hard drive in the same box that ran FC6. I am running a PVR-350 and a PVR-500 in the box. When I watch live TV or play back new recordings it sounds like the people have just sucked helium very much like what this guy describes:
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/ivtv/users/35078 I wasn't on the very latest bleeding RPMS on my FC6 box, in fact I was running myth 0.21-155_trunk_r13045.fc6 and ivtv 0.10.1-126.fc6 where now I am running 0.21-159_trunk_r13460.fc7 and ivtv 0.10.3-129.fc7. At first I thought the problem may have been in playback but it seems to play back the older transcoded videos without this problem so I think it must be in the capture. I suppose if it drops frames in the capture and plays back at a normal frame rate it would actually appear to be in fast motion (don't know if this is possible). I don't see any indication of a problem in the myth log. Looks pretty much the same as my log from the FC6 setup. I thought maybe the firmware was different but I look back and see the firmware is identical, *however* in my /var/log/messages from the FC6 install it reports a different size for the "enc" firmware that what it does on my F7 log: FC6: ivtv0: loaded v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw firmware (262144 bytes) ivtv0: loaded v4l-cx2341x-dec.fw firmware (262144 bytes) ivtv0: loaded v4l-cx2341x-init.mpg firmware (155648 bytes) ivtv1: loaded v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw firmware (262144 bytes) cx25840 3-0044: loaded v4l-cx25840.fw firmware (16382 bytes) ivtv2: loaded v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw firmware (262144 bytes) cx25840 4-0044: loaded v4l-cx25840.fw firmware (16382 bytes) F7: ivtv0: loaded v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw firmware (376836 bytes) ivtv0: loaded v4l-cx2341x-dec.fw firmware (262144 bytes) ivtv0: loaded v4l-cx2341x-init.mpg firmware (155648 bytes) ivtv1: loaded v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw firmware (376836 bytes) cx25840 3-0044: loaded v4l-cx25840.fw firmware (16382 bytes) ivtv2: loaded v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw firmware (376836 bytes) cx25840 4-0044: loaded v4l-cx25840.fw firmware (16382 bytes) I compared the firmware in /lib/firmware (and /lib/modules) for both and they are identical in size and the md5sums match. The only thing different is the date/time stamp. What I did just notice is that in the FC6 log the load size appears to be the same for both the "enc" and the "dec" and that size matches the "dec" firmware size. It appears to be loading the "dec" for both encode and decode but reporting that it loaded each individual file. How can that be possible? I just triple checked the file names, sizes and symbolic links in /lib/firmware and /lib/modules and they are correct. The symbolic links point to the proper files. I don't know if that is causing my "helium" problem. Anyone run into this or have some trouble-shooting pointers? Thanks!
